- Ex-LAPD officer's murder charge dismissed following 2015 death of homeless man
A former Los Angeles Police Department officer, Clifford Proctor, faced a dismissed murder charge after being accused of shooting and killing Brendon Glenn, a homeless man, in Venice in 2015. The case, which involved conflicting decisions by different district attorneys and a decade-long investigation, was dismissed by a judge due to lack of evidence showing malice, prompting the DA’s office to announce an appeal.
